ABSTRACT:
A steamer which accelerates the fixing of dyestuffs while reducing backing distortion and minimizing crocking and the accompanying steaming method are disclosed. The steamer uses low pressure jets of steam impinging at low velocity on the upper surface of steamed materials to displace cooler embedded air and promote fixing of printed dyes. Because fixing occurs in less time and the backing is not directly exposed to the hot steam, much less curling and distortion of the backing results. Using low velocity steam also minimizes movement of fibrous surfaces to prevent excessive dye transfer between adjacent fibers.
